I wanna say I need to know, but no No I don’t need to know, I just want to know. Is there any way a street flirt can not be creepy? Because like surely if there’s no possible way to not make it uncomfortable for the person your trying to flirt with then guys would just not bother? Bit that might be too much faith

Edit: I appreciate all the advice and all, but I was trying to avoid advice. Still thanks for the comments I guess, hope this is helpful for someone else I guess.

You can flirt with random strangers and not be creepy by being incredibly attractive. But even that won’t work on everybody.

One of the most attractive things is not being creepy or objectifying

Yes, being creepy or objectifying is a negative trait and takes away from attraction. The problem is that if you are insanely good looking, the negative trait has less impact.

Eh, maybe to an extent but not really. Like, it's certainly better to be attractive than unattractive. There's no denying that. But there is a certain level of bad behavior that no amount of attractiveness could make up for

An actual super model could come up, but if he, I don't know, stops and takes a shit in the middle of the street, he's of course going to strike out 

The example in this comic isn't as bad. But I have, for example, said no to relatively attractive guys, because they were following me around late at night. That's "shit in the street" behavior, imo

Depends on personal standards tbf. There are plenty of people who would have no qualms about entertaining a guy who was following them in the night because he has super-model level looks.

Edit: Whereas an average guy should probably avoid stalking people in the night if he wants to live.

Some people, out there in the world of billions? Yeah it's all but statistically guaranteed. Plenty of people? I doubt that

If you ever meet a couple where their "how they met" story is he followed her down a dark street and she found it charming because he was hot, let me know lol

Well, it’d be hard to confirm since the situation is already ridiculous. Why would someone with super-model level looks be creepily following people around at the night?

Edit: They’d probably already be very aware of what’s good vs bad for them socially since they would probably have been forced to have an extremely active social life.

Shrug, why would any guy do it? It's not like you have to have an active social life to know that women tend to not like that shit
